  2. Household income and expenditure survey and income in national accounts • Employers’ imputed social contribution (calculated by statisticians and unknown to employees) particularly for the government sector to guarantee that contribution is adequate for the government to pay future social benefits to current employees in cases of defined benefit scheme; • Correction by national accountants for fisim in interest payable and interest receivable and insurance service charges by national accountants in pension and insurance schemes in order to distinguish between service charges (production) and income flows; • Imputation of services from owner-occupied housing, a purely national account concept.

  3. COE receivable by household sector

  4. Mixed income receivable by household sector

  5. Property income and current transfers

  6. Analysis of country data • Graphs show percentages of difference (SNA value – Survey value)/Survey value. • In general, SNA values are significantly higher than survey values, except mixed income. • COE by 20-45%, Wages & salaries 5-25%. Given wages and salaries are more reliable, focus should be on them, while social contributions may be estimated from administrative sources. • Mixed income, exept Thailand, is generally over-estimated by HS, varies from -60% to 20%. • Property and current transfers areextremely underestimated by HS. • PCE are also underestimated by HS. Differences are at least 40% Even PCE of food are at least 30%. • For PCE, Macao and Mongolia are exceptions, why? • Gross capital formation is overestimated in Indonesia.

  13. Lessons drawn from county data • From the data supplied by the countries participating in this workshop, it is clear that for national accounts purposes: • Data on household final consumption obtained by household survey is not comprehensive enough for national account purposes. • Data on compensation of employees is more comprehensive, but still need further analysis for weakness. • It is thus important that GDP should be compiled using simultaneously by three approaches through the use of the commodity flow technique.

  14. What to do about the discrepancy problem between HH surveys and National Account (NA)? • Is the trend over time in HH survey the same as NA? • Do you use survey results in any way in NA estimation? • Or do you estimate GDP by final expenditure mainly by residual approach? Or supporting by commodity flow approach? • Was there any improvement of HH survey over time in your country experiences?
